Specialist in Land Condition (SiLC)

SiLC is a high-quality unifying professional registration for the assessment of the condition and remediation of brownfield sites, which fulfils the needs of public and private sectors and society as a whole.

The SiLC Register brings together professionals from a broad range of backgrounds who advise on land condition matters. A registered SiLC has demonstrated a broad knowledge and understanding of land condition, and can give impartial and professional advice in his or her field of expertise.

SiLC has a wide role in improving quality and standards across the industry. SiLC is gaining recognition as a 'sign off' process for a range of applications, and government agencies and commercial organisations require or recommend using a SiLC for some work.

Registration is by examination and professional interview. SiLC includes a 'land condition skills development framework' to support recognition of competence and career development, and to encourage potential applicants.

The SiLC Register is run by the SiLC Professional and Technical Panel (PTP) which comprises representatives from eight professional bodies, including the Royal Society of Chemistry.
